Fortus is a Legendary Void Defence champion from the Knight Revenant faction, a tentacled swamp horror built entirely around Fear. His whole kit feeds one engine — place Fear and True Fear, then cash them in for guaranteed critical damage — making him a potent wave controller with a genuinely risky passive.
Core Strengths & Abilities
AoE True Fear: His A2 attacks all enemies with a guaranteed (once booked) True Fear for 1 turn on a 3-turn booked cooldown, and it cannot be resisted by targets already under Fear. His A1 adds a 50% booked chance of single-target Fear and is always critical against feared targets.
Secret Skill Nuke: Astral Terrors has a 40% chance to unlock whenever a Fear or True Fear lands. It hits all enemies, ignores 30% DEF against feared targets, is always critical against them, and gains 10% damage every time a Fear debuff is placed — no crit rate investment needed.
Death Prevention: His Stars Align passive makes enemy skills 15% more likely to fail against feared targets, and on a fatal hit keeps him alive at 1 HP, then fully heals him.
Key Weaknesses
Costly Passive: That survival comes at a steep price — all his buffs and debuffs are removed, his Turn Meter fully depletes, and he puts himself to Sleep, on a 4-turn cooldown. Bosses like Clan Boss and Hydra (both rated 2) largely blank his Fear mechanics.
Fortus fits best in Arena, Ice Golem, and Fear-based wave progression, ideally alongside a reliable Fear partner like Ma'Shalled.
